With exception of two unhappy
incidents which occurred Friday and
Saturday afternoons, tbe 1st annual
fair of the Sherman County Agricu -
tural Society passed without inter
ruption» to mar the festival. Mrs
James Wood« was the victim of tbe
Friday incident, and is laid up at
home under tbe care of Dr O J Gor-
fln, with tbe bones ol one ankle bro
ken, and the other ankle very badly
sprained. Tbe accident occurred as
she was stepping to a back at the
ourb on FirsV street, in which she
was to ride home on Hood street,
stepping on a broken brick whioh
rolled under her weight, and the in
ju ry waa inflicted almost instantly.
Friends will be glad to learn that
she is resting oomfortably. and look
ing upon the sunny side of life.
The incident of Saturday was most
unfortunate and happened in view
of huudred« on the grounds and in
the grand stand, to one of tbe lady
riders at a proposed equestrienne
contest, Mrs Clara Hendricks, grand
daughter of our venerable neighbor
R Martin Her borae became un
manageable and ran away with her
nally throwing her forcibly to the
ground, kioklng her in, the stomach
with serious effect, rendering her in
sensible for some time. She was im
mediately oared for, and taken off
the grounds in Dr O J Coffin's auto

at present writing tbe patient is in a
hopeful condition.
